1 & 2 Timothy and Titus Personal Workbook by Chad Sychtysz

These are the most practical letters Paul ever wrote, and they're underused in most Bible classes.

1 & 2 Timothy and Titus Personal Workbook is a 16-lesson, 195-page study by Chad Sychtysz, the student companion to his 1 & 2 Timothy and Titus: Quick Study Commentary.

How This Workbook Helps

Paul wasn't writing to a church here. He was writing to two men he had trained, placed in difficult ministry situations, and trusted to get it right. Reading the letters that way changes every instruction in them, and it also brings classes face to face with passages churches still debate.

Detailed introductions cover Ephesus, Crete, the false teaching Paul was fighting, and his relationship with Timothy and Titus, so students aren't dropped into the text cold. Sychtysz doesn't sidestep the hard passages: the role of women in the assembly, the qualifications for elders and deacons, and church discipline are all handled with care and conviction.

What's Inside

Sixteen lessons, including:

• Warnings about false teachers in Ephesus (1 Tim. 1)
• Instructions for women in the assembly (1 Tim. 2:9-15)
• Qualifications for elders and deacons (1 Tim. 3; Titus 1)
• Conduct in the household of God, and the roles of widows, older men, and older women
• The pursuit of godliness and the danger of loving money (1 Tim. 6)
• "A workman for the Lord": handling the word accurately (2 Tim. 2)
• The coming apostasy (2 Tim. 3)
• Paul's final charge to preach the word (2 Tim. 4)
• Responsible Christian living and dealing with divisive people (Titus 2-3)

Format & Features

Each lesson has its own introduction and study questions. Scripture quotations are from the NASB, and a bibliography supports further study. It comes in paperback and as a PDF eBook, with an individual-use version and a class-use license for churches.

Who It's For

Adult Bible classes, small groups, and individual students who want a serious study of the pastoral epistles. It is especially useful for congregations working through questions about church leadership, elder qualifications, or the roles of men and women in the assembly.

Common Questions

Is there a commentary to go with it?
Yes. The 1 & 2 Timothy and Titus Quick Study Commentary covers the same text in more depth and is written for the teacher. The workbook stands on its own for students.

Can I use it to teach a class?
Yes. Its 16 lessons fit a quarter of weekly classes. Order a workbook for each student, or buy the class-use PDF license to print copies for your class.

What are the eBook options?
The individual-use PDF is for one reader. The class-use PDF license lets a church print or share copies for a whole class.
